How should I access my ISP Web space?

ISP Web Space Access

Many ISPs offer a small amount of free Web space as part of their basic service, but few offer much advice as to how it can be best accessed. FTP and Telnet are both popular ISP services for accessing Web space, but they are both extremely insecure. Check if your ISP provider offers WebDAV in lieu of FTP; it is a safer ISP service. Likewise, check if your provider offers SSH in lieu of Telnet. Using these safer means of access is one of the first steps toward maintaining ISP security.
